foolish compile problem

[Canul Podkopayeva]

i'm doing a:

gcc -lX11 file.c

and  i get the err: 

ld: cannot open -lX11: No such file or directory

But I'm sure I have the Xlib because I've installed its
rpm I've cated /usr/lib/X11R6 > /etc/ld.so.conf and
also all the other dirs that has libs on my system.
And I've also ran ldconfig. 
How can I fix this?
Thanks, in advance, for any help.
